It gets hot in the summer and I have noticed off taste from high temps during fermentation. I Frankensteined my fermentor to cool in these high temps. Just started this so I want to see what people have to say.
Starting fermentor temp 97.5 f.
Water cooler temp 58 f.
Room temp 88 f.
It's a 6.5 Big Mouth Bubbler
Ss brew tech thermowell
Inkbird temp controller
Super pump 1/4 hp submersible water pump ( slight overkill I know, dual use though with wart chiller)
Coleman party stacker 18 quart
ss 304 5/16 tubing bent with tool, highly recommended.
10' 5/16 tubing.
I'll post the temps and times soon. I don't expect to be over the top but keep my wart within a sweet range. I added hot water ( almost 100f) to just test it out first. I plan to set the monitor to start much lower so this should be easier on the system when actually in use.
Let me know what you think and some constructive criticism. I finished this kinda buzzin off some hair of the dog barely wine. Hope I didn't mess it up.
